Camorra is said to be responsible for many deaths & destruction which are on the rise in Italy.The Camorra has proven to be an extremely difficult organization to fight within Italy.The Camorra allegedly handles the refuse disposal in the region of Campania, with disastrous results for the environment and the health of the general population. Heavy metals, industrial waste, chemicals and household garbage are frequently mixed together, then dumped near roads and burnt to avoid detection, leading to severe soil and air pollution. With the assistance of private businessmen known as “stakeholders”, the numerous Camorra clans are able to gain massive profits from under-the-table contracts with local, legitimate businesses.

Drive-by shootings by camorristi often result in casualties among the local population, but such episodes are often difficult to investigate because of widespread Omertà (code of silence).The Local people of Naples live under false safety & try to protect themselves by following one principle,”See Nothing,Hear Nothing & Say Nothing”
